mircea_popescu: ah check it out, trilema has the header with the head errant today.
hanbot: i think that's a head rampant.
mod6: hey neat, i'll give this a closer look here tonight.
mod6: thanks for the post asciilifeform
mod6: oh btw, the fg-genesis.vpatch and corresponding sig are not available via the archive.is link (originating from loper-os.org) ; You may want to post these some where accessable. I can throw them onto mod6.net if you like.
☟︎ mod6: Or, w/e, s.nsa site should be coming back shortly anyway.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes yer site's 502 for the past half hour or so.

mircea_popescu: also 2018 is the year trilema actually took over my leisure reading needs. by now it's so old i've forgotten a large enough proportion of it the odds of hitting an interesting article loading my own blog actually exceed the odds of hitting something interesting by picking up a torrent, or opening the internets.
mircea_popescu: did the whole thing become uninteresting, tritely self-referrential ?
mircea_popescu: i would really like a list of "all personal blogs older than a decade" right about now.
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: but, of course, "you can find anything on the internet -- if you put it there yourself."
mircea_popescu: all fine and good, except the penultimate article is "Happy (belated) 2018! Posted by Kevin on January 6, 2018 So, I kind of missed my annual/placeholder Happy New Year post this time around…"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform "first blog" is autodisqualified. what's this, like "hot girl's first body" ? what are we, snakes ?
mircea_popescu: (anyway, remind me of the ocarine dood once i signal i'm done reading mazepath. which may take the year or something)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so how does this check out ? he had no copies of the old one or what.
mircea_popescu: seems to me a modicum of self respect is nevertheless an absolute requisite for even showing face in a public forum.
mircea_popescu: "maybe i don't have much to say ; and maybe what i have to say isn't even that interesting ; but at least i give it my best shot, and i am aware there's nothing else that's me."
mircea_popescu: whereas i find VEHEHERY objectionable the usual "oh, what kangaroo court said is what i ~really~ am, that defines me". and so following.
mircea_popescu: nevermind the "my lawyer advised me not to comment on the pending case" ; rather instead "sorry your honor, that won't look good on my blog"
mircea_popescu: in vaguely related news, " <p>Personally, I love personal blogs. I’m a sucker for HuffingtonPost, xoJane, and all those other sites with tons of juicy and interesting content.</p>" sez idiot giving advice on how to be blogful ; his page has js-disabled copy-pasting. which evidently works.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah, i'm not objecting to the thing itself, just mostly thinking out loud.
mircea_popescu: (for the young reader : xojane was some bullshit wanna-be "platform" for imaginary "cimmunities" that got bought by the suckers (time warner) in 2015 and frozen in 2016. because myspace wasn';t enough or something. and huffington post, well, need i even point out, it was exactly the same thing, ran by a nigger somewhat more dextrous still. adriana made out ok from the swindle.)
mircea_popescu: "Four years ago this month, I found out that Jane Pratt — the editor that had made me want to be an editor since I was 12 years old — had chosen me to be the beauty director of her new xoJane beauty spinoff, xoVain. OK, so I was actually her second choice — her first had fallen through — but that was OK. I had previously not even pitched to xoJane because I was so intimidated and sure I'd be rejected, so getting hired
☟︎ mircea_popescu: for a full-time editorial position in any capacity under Jane Pratt, with or without someone else's name crossed off next to mine, felt like an honor."
mircea_popescu: "marci" totally watched too much that-lesbian-interest-flick-with-the-older-woman-and-shoes, w/e it was called.
phf: trinque: have you seen
https://masteringpostgresql.com? it's by dimitri fontaine, who's a major postgresql contrib, but he also wrote pgloader, a proggy for etl into postgresql, which he wrote in common lisp; you get mentions of clos and naggum and such in his book.
phf: i saw it on a colleagues table, started reading it, and it looks sensible and educational. first time i borrow a book from a coworker :o
phf: ben_vulpes: mimisbrunnr perhaps needs a list of fellow bots, so that it ignores links from bot quotes. i remember we had conversations about how to handle it long time ago, but i don't remember what the resolution was. a111 maintains a list of all bots, which is just manually updated
mircea_popescu: oh, i guess not. a111 dun read its own lines sometimes does it ?
phf: mircea_popescu: a111 doesn't read anything from bots, i can disable it but that will obviously create a mutually recursive loop of flood
mircea_popescu: phf kinda what that ended up with, "let's see how deep it can possibly get"
deedbot: Nicole__ voiced for 30 minutes.
